Blue Dog Glass

Classes

Wednesday to Saturday, classes and studio sessions are in progress in our Mordialloc studio. People from all walks of life “play around” in warm glass producing an astonishing range of art-glass pieces- jewellery, bowls, platters and sculptures- which keep the kilns operating 7 days a week.

Warm glass is a technique where cut glass is arranged and layered and while cold placed in a kiln which is then fired to melt and form a new shape, with different colours and textures achieved by a variety of relatively simple techniques.

Students at Blue Dog Glass find that at the end of their first 3 hour session, they have prepared one or more pieces which, once fired and shaped can be presented to friends and relatives- ‘Look at this glass masterpiece I have made!’ Students find they enjoy the atmosphere at Blue Dog Glass and keep coming year after year to learn new skills or to contribute to a thriving give-and-take of ideas and creativity.
